Indian band areas are included within this profile and are defined using census subdivisions. The list uses information from Indian and Northern Affairs Canada and shows communities (census subdivisions) that are affiliated with Indian bands/First Nations. (Name changes may have occurred over time and will be added in updates to the list.)
The data for the Indian band areas are for the total Aboriginal population living in the communities. People who live in the communities do not all belong to the specific Indian band/First Nation.
The list does not include Indian band areas for communities (census subdivisions) which are associated with more than one Indian band/First Nation
The 'Search' function allows you to type the name of the Indian band area in the 'Place name search' box and obtain information on the grouping of communities affiliated with the Indian band/First Nation.
